The Board granted a 10 percent rating for right knee limitation of extension from June 17, 2015 through July 6, 2015 and denied a compensable rating prior to that period.
The deciding factor: The evidence was at least in relative equipoise that the Veteran's right knee extension was limited to 10 degrees during the specified period, warranting a 10 percent rating.
